RSN 2000s Top 1000 List created by Gabriel Thy

Still having most of my clues for the best new music in the early part of the 1990s given to me by my friend and fellow stomping buddy, Jack Johnson, the day we suffered our final falling out about money, would be the day the music died for me until I discovered iTunes on my wife's new Mac OS X box, and I shortly afterwards launched RSN. At that point I began seeking out music wherever I could find it.

This push started out as "new wave" which would morph into pop in new clothes. Punk would grow darker and heavier for the remainder of the decade. Metal became norm, and began its crude assault on the senses as speed metal. Even old pop rock bands from the 60s would hit the Eighties running with a new perspective, a new questioning, a new date zero, some 70s punk bands would tear through the Eighties as damn near mainstream giants, such as the Ramones and Iggy Pop. I would engage them all pn a more personal level than mere record listening, by relocating back to Atlanta for a brief eighteen month period, and then onto Washington, DC, home of the hardcore punk scene. This punk scene raged against me, and I raged right back.December 29, 2013
